An ignorant assessment of the duty of governments. You can add up the war costs all day. Inflate the cost of WWII and see what kind of similar comparison can be made. The ask yourself what is the cost if it DIDN'T happen.

Not to mention the war will be over someday. When have entitlements ever gone away? I would rather pay for an expensive short war rather than funding a whole generation of slackers for the rest of their lives. Not to mention that little thing called the Constitution. Uncle Sam isn't there to provide health care or bail your sorry ass out because you lied on your mortgage application.

But comparisons like the video show the true nature of socialists.

To put it is terms (albeit smaller) for this board, we could all take the money we dump on on toy cars and projects and just buy a small simple mode of transportation, and put the money we save to other uses (food, medicine). But then that isn't what being successful, capitalistic and American is all about, is it?
